He and his gang had also been involved in a 'campaign of terror' for seven years prior to GTA 1 against the 'Babylon' (agents of the American government) and controled almost all the city's drugs trade operating a 'one for you - two for me' method. His VCPD record also states that on Saturday evenings he dresses up as Sister Elisha.

After this, with the protagonist having proven themselves, he has him kill some Babylon scouts, kill a high priest before a radio interview, to help Brother Leroy and later Brother Zachary, to destroy a Babylon limousine, destroying three Babylon vans, killing some Babylon agents in a car park and later in a graveyard. While the conflict with the Babylon intensifies, the protagonist is hired to kill Spindly Jim. After this the protagonist helps the Brotherhood take control of Vice City, kills a Babylon agent who killed Brother Aerol and to kill an agent tasked with killing Brother Maelcum. The protagonist also blows up a car, with Judge Alberts inside, outside a police station in Vice Beach, rescues a mother of a Brotherhood gang member and then helps steal a number of Babylon objects while posing as an agent in a Tanker.
